How Orlistat Compares to Ozempic for Weight Loss
Orlistat and Ozempic work through different mechanisms for weight management. Orlistat 120mg acts locally in the gut by inhibiting lipase enzymes, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, which may help reduce calorie intake from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Unlike injectable treatments, orlistat comes as oral capsules taken three times daily with main meals containing fat. The medication is not absorbed into the bloodstream in significant amounts, working locally in the digestive system. Individual responses vary, and treatment suitability must be assessed through clinical consultation.

Who May Be Suitable for Orlistat Treatment
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or BMI of 28 kg/m² or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Treatment suitability is determined through individual clinical assessment, considering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals.
The online consultation process involves completing a detailed health questionnaire reviewed by qualified UK-licensed prescribers. If clinically appropriate, your prescription can be issued and dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester, with discreet next-day delivery available across the UK.
